Tho neatest farmer is the best:
Each bog and march industrious drain
Nor let vile balks deform the plain,
Nor bushes on your headland grow,
For briars a Stevens culture show.
Neat be your barns, your houses sweet;
Your paths be clean, your door-yards neat;
No moss the sheltering roof enshroud,
Nor wooden panes the windows cloud;
No sink-drains should above ground flow,
Nor weeds with wTankling poison grow;
But flowers expand, and fruit trees bloom,
And fragrant shrubs exhale perfume.
Neatly enclose your garden round;
Smooth, enrich and clear the ground;

that the savings in the savings bank
Of New York state have increased
S26, 100000 during the past fiscal
year. The total amount OF money on
deposit is $500 900, or nearly 500
apiece for every man, woman and
child in the state. There are 1898 :
Ol5 open accounts, which is more than
one apiece for every family in the
state. The deposits in the savings
bank reflect the financial condition of
the common peop!e-the people in
comparatively humble circumstances,
the people with small savings, the
people who are not included in the

that the rich are growing richer and
the poor poorer. These statistics give

To the old settlers on the shores of
Lake Superior who waited for thirty
years-and in some instances longer
for railroad connection with the outer
world, this ranting and raying of the
Democratic press for forfeiture of the
grants of land that resulted in the
building of the railroads which now
tap The lake, aud the building of
which has made it possible for many of
these sheets TO exists, indeed anus
ing These grants were made way
back in 80 and the roads were not
completed until within the past few
years Why? Because the lands
granted were not deemed of su tcient
value to warrant capitalists in advanc-
ing the money necessary To secure
their completion. Since the writer
has become resident on the shores
Of Lake Superior, thousands and thou
sands OF acres OF valuable pine lands
tributary to the roads have been pur-
chased from the government that had
heretofore been considered worthless.
Why made available? There can be
but one answer the means of outelt
furnished by the building Of railways.
1t is comforting to know that the
chef grumblers are those, who if it
had not been for these same grants
would now-as until recently have been
toasting their chins in the cities of the
East. The building of these roads
furnished employment to a vast army
Of men, has resulted in making get
at-abie large tracts of land for the

ing cities and general development
OF the country along The border of the
great lakes that would otherwise meyer
have existed m'the present generation
